Nutritious and delicious! Our homemade Hamburger Vegetable Soup is a hearty, healthy ground beef soup recipe that’s packed full of veggies, gluten and dairy-free, easy to make, and one that the whole family will love!
We are in the heart of soup season, here in the PNW! With our first major storm under our belts, it is all about the warm comforting soups now. Especially after so many went without power for so long during the storm. Our Hamburger Vegetable Soup recipe is a ground beef soup packed full of nutrition and comfort, but without any dairy or gluten, all while being clean and healthy! Even better, it’s quick and easy to make, easily customized, and perfect for the freezer, too!
Ingredients Needed
- Ground Beef – We prefer a leaner cut for this beef soup recipe, 85% or 90%.
- Veggies: Green beans, celery, carrots, onions, garlic, and tomatoes are our go-to for this recipe, but you can absolutely customize this to your tastes and preferences.
- Potatoes: We love a couple of red potatoes in here, but russets or gold would be delicious too, use whatever you have!
- Beef Stock: Have you made your own, yet?
- Worcestershire Sauce: This adds some great umami flavor!
- Tomato Paste: We like to add just a touch to add some added tomato richness and depth.
- Spices: Parsley, thyme, oregano, ground mustard, celery salt, and salt and pepper, complimentary herbs and spices to season and flavor this savory soup.
Easy to Make
It’s a one-pot wonder! We love to use our cast iron Dutch oven from our friends over at Finex, although you can use your favorite Dutch oven or large stock pot!
Recipe Tips
After cooking your ground beef in the onions and garlic, be sure to drain any excess fat from the pot to prevent your soup from being greasy. If using lean ground beef, there shouldn’t be much to drain!
To ensure even cooking of the veggies be sure to give them all a nice even chop. We like to keep the carrots on the smaller side for faster cooking.
Because we add the potatoes and veggies in this soup at the same time, we keep those potatoes nice and small so that they cook fast! If you prefer larger-sized potatoes in your soup, you can add them first to the soup and then the veggies. See recipe notes
